Lightweight amp similar to Carvin B1500?

Sign in to disble this ad
I've been thinking of building a lightweight 2-12 cab with rackmount space and good wheels then gutting my G-B NeoX 212 and putting all the guts along with a lightweight head into the new combo enclosure. I have NO complaints about the performance of any of the stuff I have, but I do hate the wheel setup on the Neox cab and would really like to have a great all-in-one rig.

If I can build it light enough I might even build a panel into the back that can hold my Boss GT-6B (heavy!) multi-effect pedal. Would be great to be able to leave everything plugged together so I could just unlatch the back panel and set it in place near the cab then plug in the power strip and turn it all on.

I love the B1500 but it's pretty doggone heavy to be building into this kind of setup IMO. Would prefer something as similar as possible but light weight.
